For more than 125 years, the clinicians at Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center (Rancho Los Amigos) in Downey, California, have been on a mission to restore health, rebuild life, and revitalize hope for persons with a life-changing illness, injury, or disability. Rancho Los Amigos is recognized as an international leader in rehabilitation medicine and clinical research, and since 1989, the hospital has been consistently ranked as one of “America’s Best Hospitals” in Rehabilitation by U.S. News and World Report. As one of the largest rehabilitation hospitals in the United States, Rancho Los Amigos cares for approximately 4,000 inpatients each year, and services 71,000 outpatient visits each year.

Rancho Los Amigos is undergoing a $418 million renovation and campus beautification project to construct a new Wellness & Aquatic Therapy Center, new outpatient facilities, and a new inpatient expansion to improve seismic safety. Long a source of pride for the Downey community and a jewel of Los Angeles County’s Department of Health Services, the needed renovation secures Rancho Los Amigos’ future as one of the top-ranked rehabilitation hospitals in the nation with technologically-advanced facilities and increased accessibility for patients and the surrounding community.
